  • Bottled particulate detergent
    Patent number: 4549977
    Abstract: A bottled particulate detergent is of certain particle sizes, bulk density and flowability and is contained in a necked bottle in which the neck opening is sufficiently small as to allow ready sealing with screw caps conventionally employed to close bottles while also allowing pouring from the bottle of the particulate detergent of the described characteristics. The bottle also includes a relatively narrow, hollow handle section through which the particulate detergent will flow. Also disclosed is a method of easily filling such bottles with free flowing particulate detergent. In both dispensing and filling operations, due to the characteristic of the detergent composition and the bottle, flow surprisingly like that of a liquid is obtained.
